    Great video!! I used to farm in Wales, you know its steep when you have to wedge your knees on the dashboard. It keeps the heart pounding especially when you start a bit of a slide!

    I used to mow a large lawn on a lawn tractor. The hillside was 35degrees and you became well aware of how dodgy that was when doing a turn at the wall crossing the top of the hill whilst trying to avoid rabbit hole that would see you over. It was dodgy a time or two even on a small lawn tractor. Top work young man, next year put a swingometer onthe cab to show vertical! Top regards, JD.

    Good job we got plenty of banks here too in West Wales, I love the challenge of them. Have to say those banks you are topping look pretty steep, if it were me I'd probably top in reverse to climb the hill.

    Lots of people can do a bank in the ploughing because the tractor digs in but when it comes to doing it in grass they tend to say no sometimes it can be to dry may a bit of lime help keep the gorse down 🇮🇲👍

    my first time on the brother in-laws farm he had me topping a field i would say steeper than this slightly with TL100 dodgy had to turn on the hill at the finish off just took it nice an easy got it done was actually most fun topping i had, think the worst thing was the sheer heat and no aircon or blower

    yep been there. And made the mistake of cutting long lush grass heavy with dew. on a old ford-son tractor back in 1977. hill was one in three. I went into a 300 yard skid plus. at the bottom of the hill the ground was flat the grass eaten short by cows and a wide dusty footpath we came to a stop. got off tractor and walked home shaken all over, if we did not stop we would have shot over the edge of a quarry.

    Keep it topped off Geoff or else that gorse will grow back. I seem to remember, when I was a teenager, so mid-late 70's, that someone rolled a Roadless or County backwards over on that very same hill when rotovating it.

    I see by the cows in the pasture that you are letting the cows do the work for you instead of the cows locked in a barn and you bringing their food to them. Congratulations. Can't figure out why your clipping so short in the middle of summer. I hope you fence the cows out for 60 to 90 days so as to allow the grass to grow back. I have been watching a lot of Greg Judy YOU TUBE videos on rotational grazing for beef cattle.
